In his post-fight speech, McFedries said “he didn’t get a lot of
support from my own team”; Miletich then told him it was “time to
move on.”

“I think there are other guys in the gym that feel the same way,”
McFedries said. “But they’re not going to speak up, because they’re
afraid, they’re afraid of the same result happening to them, that
happened to me.”

McFedries admits there could have been better communication during
his pre-fight preparation regarding who would be cornering him.
Perhaps Miletich will consider this more probation than dismissal
and invite him back in the future. McFedries is one of MMA’s most
long-suffering athletes, having dealt with
MRSA,
Crohn’s Disease, and the murder of his
mother.
